Best chiropractor ever
Deby Taylor • Apr 20, 2026
My first treatment with Dr. Hatlen was very positive and helpful. He took the time to explain my issues, how they are affecting me and what can be done to improve them. He did a laser treatment first and I can already feel a difference. Will definitely keep going to him.

Dr Hatlen does a great job of keeping my ribs in alignment so I don't have the pain when I raise my arms over my head!
Gina Aroneo • Apr 20, 2026
I enter the office with a shuffle and leave walking normal. Through my treatment I have significant pain reduction and definitely more mobility. Dr Hatlen continues to study and invest in his practice which benefits his patience. I really appreciate Dr. Hatlen.
